The Neighbourhood is an online storytelling project conceived by Alyson Evans and Tahni Froudist. The project asked Albury Wodonga area residents to reflect creatively on the theme of home. The integration of their photographs, videos, stories and poetry into an interactive digital map reflects the diverse community of people who live in The Neighbourhood. Come and meet them. Be inspired to submit your own creative reflections and take your place in The Neighbourhood!
